For ponies, Hearth's Warming Eve is a joyous time. Caribou though... their legends are darker. They know what threats await in the long, dark nights of winter, and what evils can lurk in the hearts of those who dwell there.

Twelve years after the Crusaders discovered their true nature, an ancient evil has returned. Celestia is hurt, magic is weakened, and Equestria is nearly lost. Now our heroes must find a way to fix The Hole In The Sun.

The Crusaders learn that they aren't like other ponies. As they uncover the secrets of their origins, the trio grow closer than ever, discovering not only their unique nature, but the incredible power that comes with it as well.

It's that time again! BABSCon is this weekend in San Francisco! Everyone interested should join our chat room on Discord. https://discord.gg/Ana2ctp We'll use that to send updates and let people meetup for meals/rides/drinks/etc.

We (writers) are having a room party again this year. Should be in a full suite this time, and plenty of drinks will be available. Keep an eye on the chat and we'll post there as soon as we know what room we're in.
